Managers' Sharing Best Practice Network Meetings
In addition to any locally grown Managers’ Meetings Optimum is offering regular themed network meetings.
Optimum provides monthly themed network meeting for Owners, Registered Managers and Service Leads from care provider settings across the County. They can be booked through an Optimum Booking Form, linked to the title in the schedule below. They aim to provide information into the workshop theme, signpost to resources and encourage the sharing of best practice between care provider colleagues around the county.
The meetings will be held around the county, to make attendance more accessible for all. There are no restrictions on attendance. Initially these events will be at no cost, but as there are costs attached for room hire and refreshments etc we do ask that places are cancelled prior to the day of the event. If too many people do not turn up on the day, then charging for non-attendance will be considered as we do with other events.
